What Is Dielectric Grease?
Dielectric grease is a non-conductive, silicone-based grease that seals out moisture and prevents corrosion on electrical connections, including those on the ignition coil.
Where to Use Dielectric Grease?
Your car’s ignition coil connectors, accompanied by small clips, are the primary points for applying dielectric grease. These connectors are vulnerable to moisture and corrosion, making the grease crucial for protection.
How to Apply Dielectric Grease?
Apply only a thin film of grease on the clips using precision tools like a Q-tip or a small brush. Avoid direct contact with electrical contacts to prevent disruption of electrical flow. Over-application can lead to engine issues.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Avoid applying grease directly to electrical contacts or over-applying it on ignition wires, as this can hinder electrical conductivity and lead to engine stumbles or rough idling. Promptly clean off excess grease if over-applied and use an electrical contact cleaner if necessary.
